AI ROLLUP: 26 Months Until AGI | Meta's New Top Model Cheated? | $20 Billion To AI Apps

Welcome to the AI Rollup, your weekly ride through the fast-paced world of artificial intelligence! This week, we’re joined by frontier tech enthusiast Josh Kale to unpack the drama around Meta’s controversial launch of Llama 4, scrutinized for potentially overstating its capabilities. We dive into “AI 2027,” a provocative roadmap predicting espionage, geopolitical turmoil, and runaway intelligence, and explore Shopify’s bold move making AI usage mandatory for employees. Plus, we cover Claude Education’s groundbreaking efforts to boost student performance with tailored AI tutors and a16z’s massive $20 billion AI startup fund aiming to shape the industry’s next era.------🪙FRAX | SELF SUFFICIENT DeFihttps://bankless.cc/Frax🦄UNISWAP | SWAP ON UNICHAINhttps://bankless.cc/unichain🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORKhttps://bankless.cc/Mantle🌐SELF | PROVE YOUR SELFhttps://bankless.cc/Self🏦INFINEX | THE CRYPTO-EVERYTHING APPhttps://bankless.cc/Infinex------TIMESTAMPS & RESOURCES00:00:00 AI Generated Tarriff’s00:03:58 Meta’s Huge New LLAMA 4 Announcementhttps://x.com/ahmad_al_dahle/status/1908595680828154198?s=46https://x.com/alexocheema/status/1908651942777397737?s=4600:11:54 Did Meta Cheat?https://x.com/Yuchenj_UW/status/1909061004207816960https://x.com/andrewallenxo/status/1909143884321481157https://x.com/ahmad_al_dahle/status/1909302532306092107?s=46https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/4mvphwx5pdsZLMmpY/recent-ai-model-progress-feels-mostly-like-bullshit00:20:45 AGI Is Coming in 2027https://ai-2027.com/https://situational-awareness.ai/00:28:02 What Happens After AGIhttps://ai-2027.com/https://situational-awareness.ai/00:39:58 Shopify And The Employment Crisishttps://x.com/tobi/status/190925194623543751400:48:34 The Future Of Educationhttps://www.anthropic.com/news/introducing-claude-for-educationhttps://x.com/jowettbrendan/status/1907695965726978184https://x.com/cryptopunk7213/status/1907969387958513727https://x.com/itsPaulAi/status/1907122207136137368https://www.foxnews.com/media/texas-private-schools-use-ai-tutor-rockets-student-test-scores-top-2-country00:59:55 How Much Does AI Know About You01:04:58 A16Z’s $30B Fundhttps://x.com/tkexpress11/status/1909626333711548526https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/andreessen-horowitz-seeks-raise-20-billion-megafund-amid-global-interest-us-ai-2025-04-08/------Not financial or tax advice.
